We have a 3-week vacation to London that will include a Disney Cruise booked for this summer. I am attempting to keep our packing light, by travelling with just carry-on luggage. Since we are travelling light we are only bringing packing essentials for our trip, and yes we are still participating in the Fish Extender […]

I have created a few new magnet styles that are great for giving a fish extender gift. I wanted the new magnets to be reminiscent of old postcards. So far I have one for the Disney Wonder’s Alaskan cruises, and one for Disney Magic’s Caribbean cruises. Watch out over the next couple of weeks […]

If you are going on a Disney Cruise you may have heard about Fish Extender Gift Exchange (FE gifts) and may be wondering what is it all about. The Fish Extender Gift Exchange started as a gift exchange by a cruiser named Debbie, on one of the 2005 Panama Canal cruises, and has grown ever since. […]

Many cruise lines have special, secret staterooms, Disney Cruise Line is no exception. The Disney Magic and the Disney Wonder have 2 sets of theses rooms: secret porthole staterooms, and secret verandah staterooms. The secret porthole staterooms have an obstructed view and their category was changed from a 9A to a 10A. To book these […]

Over the past year or so I have been shifting my focus from baby blankets to pop culture items. The shop name Snug-a-Bug Blankets no longer fit, so I changed to Raspberry Soufflé. I hope to feature recipes, travel, and pop culture posts. I also hope to post more ;). The change in items in […]

We had eaten at the California Grill last September and enjoyed our meal, but it was not my favourite this time it was my number one. I originally had California booked later in the week but because we added the dessert party I moved it to different night and was happy to get a reservation […]

I made an early 7:30am reservation for Kona Cafe. My plan was to walk over from the Grand Floridian, have breakfast at Koan then walk over to the TTC and catch the monorail over to Epcot hopefully for rope drop. The walk over was easy the path wasn’t to busy and it only took about […]

I have created a new embroidery design to use with your embroidery machine. It is a modern flower design inspired by mid century style. It is available at Snug-A-Bug Blankets in 3 sizes; small 99.3×67.1mm (3.91×2.64inch), medium 152.4×102.6mm (6.0×4.04inches) and large 226.3×152.3mm (8.91×6.0 inches), and a number of formats including PES, HUS, and DST. I think […]

My go to recipe for chocolate chip cookies comes from Martha Stewart. The cookies are chewy and moist and the recipe makes a big batch. I usually half the recipe unless I need them to feed a crowd. The recipe says it will make 3 dozen but usually get 4 dozen when I make the […]

We spent the afternoon at Animal Kingdom and saw some shows we missed last time, The Lion King and Flights of Wonder, and discovered our daughter had easily made the 40inch mark and would be able to ride more things than last time. Since we were staying at Grand Floridian we decided to valet park […]
